Chorus:
Rock  
Never stop
Get it on
Write a book 
I’m gonna’ live it on top
Find the spot 
Never stop

When I’m gone
Feed the dogs 
Give it up
Take it 
Give it away

Verse:
Thinking
Know it won’t stop
I got it roughed-out
Felt-around 
Walked-outside,
Figured it out

They won’t believe it
But I know it won’t stop
No heart of black
In-described 
Mother-of-a-chunk 
I found out

Rock Never Stop_Demo_

Living on borrowed time
Mostly yours-some of mine
Thinking ‘bout starting a revolution 
Gonna get it in-line

Ready, set, go—come on
Docket’s set-oh lord (load)!
Cock back, wham-bam: revolution
Can’t you feel it blowing in? 

Can you feel it in the wind?
Can’t you feel it, my friends!
You’re right where it all began!
Can you feel it in the wind? 

Getting Darker every day
Can’t let that news set you astray 
Tell ‘em right now, by God and country
We’re headed out this a-way 

Maybe you think it’s too soon?
Some you win, and some you lose
That time has passed now—it’s too late
Come on, let’s show ‘em the way! 

Can you feel it in the wind?
Can’t you feel it, my friends!
You’re right where it all began!
Can you feel it in the wind? :

Can You Feel It In The Wind Acoustic Demo

You say it’s cold
How do you know
Were you outside just then

Not what you said
Not what you did
That’s why ask again

I just wanted to know
What you thought
Right then 

I just wish 
Things were good again

Is it too warm
Should I turn it up
Don’t you mean down 

What does it say
How does it work 
Didn’t look since you left town 

I just wanted to know
What you thought
Right then 

I just wish 
Things were good again

I Wish_Demo

V:
Drifting to Old Sand Rd. 
Rolling thru my mind
Dying wells + cedar swells
Nowhere by design

Picking up hearts along the way
Didn’t know I needed to find
Close my eyes an it flies right back
Every time 

C:
Come up on sweet Marie
I wish I had to say
To know you then
If you saw me
In your salad days

Box of yellow pictures 
From here to today
The world still turns 
Things go on
Was supposed to the this way

V2:
Sweetest forever dreams tonight
As you pass along the way
The dog is well, the girl’s just fine
Seems older than I could say

No space  between us
Love found a way
Between the stars the moon and the earth and the sky
In the morning and every day

B:
We’ll get by

C:
Come up on sweet Marie
I wish I had to say
To know you then
If you saw me
In your salad days

Box of yellow pictures 
From here to today
The world still turns 
Things go on
Was supposed to the this way

SWU Fall 2018, Song 3
------------------------------
Verse 1:
 She was a red-hot number
 Ran outside of the scene
 I was an invisible something
 At the corner of blank and pre-teen

Called me on a Friday
 Did it mean anything?
 Meet me on a Saturday 
I wish I could have seen what she seen
I wish I could of seen what she seen  

Chorus 1: 
Throwing my head underwater
 Living like I was in a dream 
The kid who appeared from nowhere 
Was suddenly somebody’s thing 
Suddenly somebody’s thing 

Verse 2: 
Didn’t go far past the weekend 
And I was never the same 
A glimpse of something from a stranger
And  I felt something change
Yeah! I felt something change

Then everyone broke for the rest of their lives
 Or so the story would seem
 I’d never forget that beautiful girl 
And we’d always have that thing 
(At least) I’d always have that thing

Verse 3:
Years later at camp for a long week-end 
I was part of a big-ole, new scene
 And she was at home with her good friends
 Probably working on her own set of dreams
Working on her own set of dreams

Pre Chorus: 
The car rolled over and over 
So she spread her wings 
An instant angel forever
 And I’d never forget her thing
 I'd never forget our thing!

Chorus 2: 
Thew my head underwater
 Living like I was in a dream
 That kid who came from something 
Forever somebody’s something
Forever somebody’s something

Bridge:
God, please let her live through me
God, please let her live through me
 God, please keep her safe with me

Verse 1:
Holding on tight within both of your hands
Just getting by for so long
Who knows the time or what day is it
Staying in bed can’t be wrong

Prechorus 1:
What can be said
Just keep that clear head 
I’s the same news everyday

Don’t check and see
Turn off the tv
Instead 

Chorus 1:
Is it enough to get you by
Wake up and try

Verse 2:
Feels like better days will come again
Everything is always change 
Who can say what the other side brings 
Or how this waiting will end.

Enough To Get You By

SWU Spring 2020, Song #4

Verse 1
I don’t want you gone
But it’s all you wanna’ be
Another torn-up, lonely part
Of my everyday reality 

You called the stop
So I’ll go on hurting truly *//   
Join the club of the all down hearts
Partners in misery

Verse 2
I didn’t think it could end
Sliding hourglass sand, you see
Even when I’d throw those darts 
You’d throw ‘em right back at me

Everything then nothing 
Endings always happen to me *//
Wish I’d remembered those old lonely days
Before messing with you and me

Chorus 1:
Tell me something I want to hear
So I won’t feel so alone
Anything I can grab on to
Maybe that you’re alone

That you’re so-alone :

Solo

Verse 3
Come on to the club
Of the all down hearts of misery
See those friends of mine
Hear their stories of ‘you and me’

Then maybe a coffee
Some place where we used to go  *//
We’ll laugh about the old times
When we both weren’t so alone

Chorus 2:
Tell me something I want to hear
So I won’t feel so alone
Anything I can grab on to
Maybe that you’re alone

That you’re so-alone :

Verse 1:
Time keeps on slowing
Nothing doing
Around

Find yourself old-ing
Puttering on 
About

But the world keeps on rolling
Was never a place we knew
Well/ wow

Kids keep on knowing
Jumping and going
On Down

Chorus:
Get it out
Get it out 

Verse 2:
No pain with or growing
A punch in the nuddz 
Keeps ground

Old folks keep on going
Shaking their heads
LOL

The good ones they know it
Nothing matters
Right now

Just keep changing
No plan
Just mess it about

Chorus 2:
Get it out
Get it out

Get It Out
